You can understand why clubs would be asking, as Moreland entered play Tuesday batting .287/.333/.529 with 16 homers this season. He's pretty cheap ($2.95 million), though, and is under team control next season. The Rangers would likely have to be blown away by an offer in order to entertain a deal. Jul 21 - 11:41 PM

Mitch Moreland hit his 15th and 16th homers of the year Saturday against the Padres.

Oddly enough, Moreland has had three two-homer games since his last one-homer game on June 27. He's been quite the force in the middle of the Texas lineup when healthy, which is certainly a nice turnaround from last year. He had just two homers in 167 at-bats in 2014, compared to his 16 in 250 at-bats this year. Jul 12 - 1:48 AM

Mitch Moreland enjoyed his second consecutive two-homer game, helping the Rangers beat the Orioles on Tuesday.

Moreland also walked in his four plate appearances. He tied the game at two apiece with a two-run home run in the second, then repeated the act in the eighth inning to boost the Rangers' lead to 8-5. Moreland now has 14 home runs, 43 RBI, and a .305/.353/.563 triple-slash line. Jun 30 - 9:53 PM

It clears a roster spot for Sam Dyson. Before the injury, Chirinos was on pace for 14 homers and 52 RBI. Both would have been career highs. Bobby Wilson and Chris Gimenez will fill in at catcher during his absence.

Profar underwent surgery back in February to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder but has progressed nicely in his recovery so far. He has a long way to go to re-establish himself after missing back-to-back seasons because of injury.

He's slated for three rehab outings, as he'll go to Double-A Frisco for his second start and then back to Round Rock for his third. Assuming all goes well, Holland should rejoin the Rangers' rotation at that point. He's been on the shelf nearly all season due to a subscapular strain in his left shoulder.
